About this Event
Did you know that practicing mindfulness can reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being? When combined with drawing, mindfulness becomes a powerful tool for calming the mind and expressing creativity.
In this 1.5-hour mindful drawing class, you’ll learn how to use drawing as a way to anchor yourself in the present moment. We’ll explore simple techniques to start your own mindful drawing practice, discover which supplies work best, and dive into the creative process without any pressure or expectations.
You’ll leave with your first mindful drawing piece, practical tips, handouts, and a list of prompts to help you continue your mindful drawing journey at home, even when you’re feeling stuck!
No previous drawing experience is needed—just bring an open mind and a willingness to explore. Join us to experience the relaxing and restorative benefits of mindful drawing!
About the teacher:
Cat Thomas, MAT is an Artist & Expressive Arts Facilitator based out of Chattanooga, TN. 15 years ago, Cat intuitively began using art and writing as a therapeutic tool in her personal life. Once she experienced the true potential art has to heal the mind, body & spirit, Cat enrolled in the Expressive Arts Florida Institute in Sarasota, FL. After taking a weekend long intensive there, she knew her purpose was not only to create her own art, but to increase individual and community health & wellness by using the arts as a tool for healing, personal growth & self-discovery.
Since finishing her training in 2015, Cat has worked with 1000’s of people helping them connect with their creative selves so they may gain the therapeutic benefits of doing something creative. From working as an Artist in Residence at cancer center for close to 10 years to partnering with a local community to create a collaborative neighborhood street mural, Cat enjoys working with a variety of populations, and truly believes that when given the opportunity to create in a safe, supportive and nonjudgmental space people can transform their lives from the inside out.
Please note: Cat is not a licensed or credentialed art therapist.
